I really didn't pay attention to her death, but I looked it up, and British press say her murderer is related to the US Nazi movement.

So, the Nazis want a united Europe, if not the world, and this dogooder liberal (Oxfam...) wanted the UK to stay in the EU.

So why off her, save for the cynically calculated political optics? I bet her seat is safe, party-wise.

That, or she wouldn't sleep with whomever.

Most of the "pundits" were indoctrinated in College--there as here--in the pursuit of Surrender By Subterfuge.

Treason is not idealism, but many so called "pundits," do not understand the difference.

But I don’t want to financially be tied at the hip with my neighbors. Why would I want to be involved in their decision making or finances? Why would they need to be involved in mine?

The EU was inspired by the US. 50 States, one nation, all that. But the 50 states speak the same language, have had a common currency, ethnicity, and traditions for 200 years. Europeans don't even all use the same alphabet.

Anything that breaks the grasp of power by the one world government globalist is a good thing. Let Angela Merkel, Hillay and Pope Francis go to hell.

Here, here. And their climate scare, bring on the unvetted immigrants propaganda.

A more conservative and safe-conscious Europe, the more that helps our own revolution.

Time of the whole world to act smart, not politically correct.

“Even in a LEAVE landslide, it will be years and years before the rulers exit. If they really do at all.”

So don’t bother voting then, since it means nothing?

Always easy to live as a DEFEATIST, heck I know many of them, but we’ll see here. A good, strong, win for pulling out will put INCREDIBLE PRESSURE on the usual parties there, and if they don’t act, Nigel’s next beer may well be in #10.

I didn't say that. I don't like being castigated for being cognizant of the facts and speaking realistically. We win by understanding the situation and dealing with it. They will lie and drag out the exit even if the referendum says leave. That's a fact. The people will have to deal with that afterward. But the leave vote must win clearly or it's dead in the water, no good options after.

Point is that even a landslide leave vote will be just the beginning. It would be foolish and very unproductive to believe otherwise. The corrupt EU crowd, especially Cameron, will lie and cheat to any extent they can to hold on to their power. A clear victory for LEAVE will not get the UK out of the EU in a hurry, maybe not at all for years. But it is a step and would likely torpedo Cameron politically, which is a very good thing. Some fear in the hearts of the EU traitors and ass lickers if Cameron is jettisoned will certainly be a positive.

No doubt, but of course the people who are telling you that are all supporters of the remain campaign, so they would say that.

The indications are that the great British public are seeing through this smokescreen.

Theoretically that might be true, but all governments ultimately derive their authority from the people. To just simply ignore a massive statement like that would be very dangerous for the powers that be. I’m sure they can spin it out for a while, but I dont think they can blatantly ignore it.

Latest news is that the Conservatives have publically stated they will not contest the seat.

Which is Obama’s signature policy and it has been effectively blocked.
